Dim uidl As String = "123"

' ------------------------------------------------------------------------
' The FetchEmail method is deprecated:

Dim emailObj As Chilkat.Email = mailman.FetchEmail(uidl)
If (mailman.LastMethodSuccess = False) Then
    Debug.WriteLine(mailman.LastErrorText)
    Exit Sub
End If

' Do the equivalent using FetchByUidl.
' Your application creates a new, empty Email object which is passed 
' in the last argument and filled upon success.

Dim headerOnly As Boolean = False
' Irrelevant because we are not downloading headers-only.
Dim numBodyLines As Integer = 0

Dim emailOut As New Chilkat.Email
success = mailman.FetchByUidl(uidl,headerOnly,numBodyLines,emailOut)
If (success = False) Then
    Debug.WriteLine(mailman.LastErrorText)
    Exit Sub
End If
